This is great, I'm going to try to use this in my Dataflow class at ITP/NYU.  I'm currently updating the openni/primesense packaging for Debian and Ubuntu and am packaging for Mac OS X/Fink.  It would be awesome if you could try to build against the packaging.

(these should be showing up soon)
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/openni
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/openni-sensor-primesense

I'm pushing my Debian packaging to the git repos on Debian pkg-multimedia.  As I get things working, I'll post binary packages to this PPA:

you're welcome.

if you get this issue with permissions to usb device place the udev rule into /etc/udev/rules.d
see: https://github.com/OpenKinect/libfreenect/tree/master/platform/linux/udev

but it still has this error when using freenect with audio support.
so a temporal fix can be
sudo chmod 777 /dev/bus/usb/001/026
-> that id changes every time...

maybe someone found a way to permanently add the rule... i tried but couldn't manage to get it working without setting the chmod manually.

vielen dank für diese Externals!
wie hast n du das mit den permissions auf das device geregelt?
ich bekomm als user folgenden errör:

libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/026: Permission denied.
libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.
libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/024: Permission denied.
libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.

danks für info & gruss

i added a small external that allows to control motor/led of Kinect and can output the accelerometer data via libfreenect.

you can use this in combination to pix_openni.
get it here:

https://github.com/kronihias/freenect

just the audio external with resampling included missing.... somebody willing to help?

hello again!

if you want to use skeleton data and hand tracking (similar to OSCeleton)
combined with rgb and depth streams from Kinect Sensor you can do this with
the new pix_openni external. get it here:

https://github.com/kronihias/pix_openni

binaries for osx in build folder.
you will need to install OpenNI, NITE and SensorKinect -> see README

initialization of openni and nodes needs some time and pd freezes - keep
that in mind!
i hope it's stable, i haven't tested it excessively now.

currently it supports just 1 kinect sensor. i don't have access to two
cameras in the near future so help would be appreciated.

hi everybody!

i did a update to my pix_freenect external for kinect and moved it into a
git repo.
get it here: http://github.com/kronihias/pix_freenect

ready to use binaries for osx (including libusb&libfreenect) are in the
build folder.

major improvements:
* open specific Kinect sensor by serial number, not only by id (that may
change every time pd is restarted) – useful for multiple Kinect
installations
* output registered depthmap -> rgb and depth images are aligned (less
offset between those two pictures - depending on distance)
* output depthmap directly as millimeter values (16 bit in red& green
channels)
* resolution of rgb image can be set to 1280×1024

i also added a folder with examples - currently just one but i hope there
will come more soon....

have fun.

matthias
